A craps Field bet is a one-roll wager. Under a common ruleset, 2, 3, 4, 9, 10, 11 and 12 win; 5, 6, 7 and 8 lose. The most important detail to verify is the paytable for 2 and 12, because one table may pay both at 2:1 while another may pay one of them at 3:1.
Check the opened table before committing money. This is general craps education. It does not claim that a particular Lotwin craps table, Field paytable, stake, provider or feature is currently available.
Check four details before the roll
Open the rules or paytable and confirm:
- Which totals win? Do not assume that every one-roll layout uses the same winning set.
- What do 2 and 12 pay? Record whether each pays 2:1, 3:1 or another displayed amount.
- What does 3, 4, 9, 10 and 11 pay? A common Field rule pays even money, but the displayed rule is authoritative.
- Is the amount a profit payout or total return? A 2:1 profit payout means two units of profit plus the original one-unit stake returned.
The Craps Learn hub explains the broader game sequence. The Place-bet guide covers a multi-roll wager on 4, 5, 6, 8, 9 or 10; it is not another name for the Field.
Read the common one-roll result table
This table shows a common Field structure. Use it only as a comparison checklist, not as a substitute for the rules on the table you opened.
| Dice total | Common Field result | Common profit payout | What to verify |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 | Win | 2:1 or 3:1 | Whether this table pays double or triple |
| 3 | Win | 1:1 | Whether even money is displayed |
| 4 | Win | 1:1 | Whether even money is displayed |
| 5 | Lose | — | Confirm the losing totals |
| 6 | Lose | — | Confirm the losing totals |
| 7 | Lose | — | Confirm the losing totals |
| 8 | Lose | — | Confirm the losing totals |
| 9 | Win | 1:1 | Whether even money is displayed |
| 10 | Win | 1:1 | Whether even money is displayed |
| 11 | Win | 1:1 | Whether even money is displayed |
| 12 | Win | 2:1 or 3:1 | Whether this table pays double or triple |
The wager resolves after that single dice result. A win or loss does not remain active for a later roll unless a new wager is accepted.
Separate stake, profit and total return
Suppose the stake is ₦100:
- at 1:1, profit is ₦100 and total returned is ₦200;
- at 2:1, profit is ₦200 and total returned is ₦300;
- at 3:1, profit is ₦300 and total returned is ₦400.
Use this formula:
profit = stake × displayed profit ratio
total returned = original stake + profit
If the interface displays “payout” without saying whether it includes the stake, check the detailed rules or settlement example. Do not treat a ₦300 total return on a ₦100 wager as ₦300 profit.
Understand why the 2 and 12 rule matters
Two dice have 36 equally likely ordered outcomes. Under the common winning-total set, 16 combinations win and 20 lose. The exact long-run house edge then depends on the endpoint payouts:
| Profit rule for 2 and 12 | Calculated house edge under this stated ruleset |
|---|---|
| Both pay 2:1 | 5.56% |
| One pays 2:1 and the other 3:1 | 2.78% |
| Both pay 3:1 | 0.00% |
The last row is a mathematical comparison, not a claim that such a table is offered. Rules can differ, and additional conditions would change the calculation. The casino maths hub explains why probability, payout, RTP and house edge are long-run measures rather than predictions of the next roll.
A higher endpoint payout improves the stated mathematical return, but it does not make 2 or 12 more likely to appear. Each still has only one combination out of 36.
Do not confuse Field with other wagers
The Field uses several totals and resolves once. It differs from:
- a Place bet, which waits for one selected number or 7;
- a Pass Line or Don't Pass wager, which follows the come-out roll and point cycle;
- an odds bet, which attaches to an eligible line or Come wager;
- a proposition bet, which may target one total or dice combination under a separate paytable.
The same total can appear in more than one betting area while using different settlement rules. Confirm the label, accepted stake and payout before applying any calculation. The broader craps betting guide compares the main wager families without treating any system as a guaranteed advantage.
Save minimal evidence if a result looks wrong
If a completed Field wager does not match the displayed rule, preserve only what identifies the transaction:
- round or game ID;
- date and time with timezone;
- stake amount;
- displayed Field paytable;
- dice total and settlement entry;
- a screenshot of the relevant rule text if permitted.

Set the money limit before playing
A Field bet can settle quickly, which can make repeated wagers easy to lose track of. Decide a total money and time limit before play, count every repeated stake and never increase the next wager to recover a loss. A higher payout on 2 or 12 does not predict the next roll.
